Sounds pretty usual for a 'market economy' - the generators will be 'customers' of the grid - if technical problems mean that the grid can't provide the transmission service they've contracted to supply, and as a result their customers are unable to sell their produce on the open market, then any sensible contract would have a 'penalty clause' that provides for compensation to be paid. A decent lawyer would argue that the losses would be more than just the financial cost of lost sales - a loss of goodwill from the generator's customers, or extra work for the generator's employees etc. etc. would also add to the bill.
